Huayu started by playing Lao Ai

Chapter 218 Xiao Zhou is in pain

Lin Yueyun is also an experienced person. After her daughter’s call was connected, she quickly heard something unusual.

At first, she was furious.

In order to let Hou Pei-chen marry into a wealthy family, Lin Yue-yun has always strictly disciplined her daughter, insisting that Hou Pei-chen remain a blank slate, waiting to be sold at a good price.

Unexpectedly, if you are not careful, this white paper will be smeared with ink and painted.

Lin Yueyun quickly calmed down. She knew that this matter could not be made public and she had to figure out the situation first.

But I heard a man's voice coming from the other end of the phone.

"I want to check your hosting skills. Sit up and report the news to me."

Lin Yueyun thought it was ridiculous and her daughter would definitely not agree to it.

Unexpectedly, after just a while, the voice of Hou Peichen reporting the news came from the other end of the phone, in pure American English.

The intermittent pauses in this English made Lin Yueyun a little restless.

But the man still found fault.

"That's too much of a broadcast voice. This isn't your specialty. Be more coquettish."

Hou Peichen immediately changed her style to meet Zheng Jing's requirements.

She was immersed in the ocean of knowledge and completely forgot about the phone call and never hung up.

Lin Yueyun inexplicably did not hang up the phone.

That night, Hou Peichen learned a lot, and Lin Yueyun also gained some insights.

Women are always full of contradictions.

When she decided to communicate with Zheng Jing, Hou Peichen was thinking that she wanted to make a career on her own, break away from her mother's control and planning, and gain freedom.

But after communicating with each other, she developed a deep attachment to Zheng Jing and felt that there was nothing wrong with relying on Zheng Jing.

Seeing Zheng Jing collecting her white scarf, Hou Pei-chen felt a sense of sweetness.

It’s a pity that this sweet feeling only lasted for a short time.

Because Zheng Jing called Li Xing from the next room over.

Seeing the tacit understanding between Zheng Jing and Li Xing, Hou Peichen couldn't help but feel jealous, but the discipline she had received since childhood made her not angry, but instead she started competing.

Hou Peichen tried very hard, but as a newcomer she still lost to Li Xing.

She was still thinking of other ways when she heard Zheng Jing say, "After you sign with West Entertainment, Li Xing will be your agent. You two should cooperate well with him in the future."

Hou Peichen: “…”

Li Xing looked at Hou Peichen and said with a smile, "Don't worry, President Zheng. With your support, I will take care of Peichen. She will definitely become popular."

Hou Pei-chen tried hard to adapt to the corporate culture of West Entertainment. She said with a fake smile, "I hope Sister Li Xing will take good care of me in the future."

Li Xing said: "Our company follows the principle of "there is a reward for every effort", and General Manager Zheng's good reputation cannot be tarnished. You should be rewarded for your efforts.

The company will have three variety shows coming up. You will be the host of "I Love to Remember Lyrics" first, and we will arrange for you to do more later depending on the situation."

In just a few words, Li Xing had made all the arrangements for Hou Peichen.

Hou Peichen had no objection for the time being. She felt that she was a newcomer and wanted to observe and learn for a while before making any decision.

Zhongtian was very efficient, and the “Guess” program recorded by Zheng Jing was broadcast the next night.

The average viewership for this episode reached an astonishing 1.91%, setting a new record for CTI variety shows.

Especially when Zheng Jing played the piano, the ratings reached the highest, reaching 2%.

Don’t underestimate the ratings of 1.91% and 2%.

Although Taiwan is only a province with a population of 2000 million, there were 2001 cable TV stations in 66. Together with wireless TV stations, overseas TV stations, and various private local stations, there are hundreds of TV stations, large and small.

The competition among TV stations is very fierce.

If a variety show has a viewership rating of over 1, it is a very popular show.

The highest ratings in the history of the popular variety show "Kangxi Comes Here" is only 1.88%.

After the broadcast of "Guess What", Jing Tian also became popular.

The sales of her new album in Taiwan have increased significantly.

The culture of Taiwan is deeply influenced by Japan, and there is also a market for otaku and female idols.

At this time, Jing Tian is an enhanced version of Wang Xinling in terms of album quality and personal image.

Soon she captured a large number of male fans in Wandao.

The songs in her album are mostly fresh and cheerful pop songs, expressing the voices of many adolescent girls.

So girls like it too.

In addition, Zheng Jing’s fans wanted to listen to the song “Love Letter” and bought the album.

Starting from October 10, the sales of Jing Tian's new album in Wandao suddenly soared, with sales exceeding 18 in a single week, ranking first in the weekly sales ranking of Wandao records.

Ranked second is Sun Yanzi's "Kite" and third is Zhou Jielun's "Fantasy".

On October 10, Zhou Jielun looked at the latest album sales ranking published in the newspaper and was very depressed to see that he had dropped from second to third.

Assistant Zhong Ruohan came over and said, "Third place is already impressive. I thought you were used to this kind of scene, but I didn't expect you to be so frustrated."

Zhong Ruohan’s tongue is really venomous, and her comfort is really heartbreaking.

Zhou Jielun has always wanted to replace this female assistant, but Wu Zongxian disagrees.

Zhong Ruohan felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said.

In fact, Zhou Jielun did struggle in the early days.

She was suppressed by Wang Lihong and others at the Golden Melody Awards, and her album sales were also not as good as Sun Yanzi's.

His unclear singing style and avant-garde music style have also been criticized and condemned by the mainstream.

Seeing Zhou Jielun was silent, Zhong Ruohan pointed to the front page of the entertainment newspaper and said, "Look, Zheng Jing is promoting his movie in Singapore. The scene is packed with people, and some female fans even fainted from excitement.

How can you compare with him?

Jing Tian's album was produced by Zheng Jing, and he also played a song in it himself.

It is normal for her sales to be higher than yours. As for Sun Yanzi, she is a monster, her voice is too recognizable.”

Zheng Jing stayed in Wandao for three days, then separated from Jing Tian and took Shu Chang to Southeast Asia to promote the movie.

Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand are all places where religion and mystical culture are prevalent, and are also the target markets of Double Eyes.

On the afternoon of the 23rd, Zheng Jing organized an outdoor event in Singapore.

This was his first time in Singapore and the scene was packed with people, especially female fans.

When Zheng Jing greeted, he waved in one direction.

Some female fans thought that it was Zheng Jing who was responding to their shouts and was too excited. In addition, there were too many people at the scene and the air circulation was poor.

The female fan was short of oxygen and fainted on the spot, which made news headlines again.

Zhou Jie Lun looked at the newspaper and saw Zheng Jing waving handsomely. He thought of Hou Peichen and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhong Ruohan continued, "Hurry up and adjust your mood, we are going to the mainland to promote the album next.

The market there is bigger, maybe your album will become popular in mainland China?
Let’s go to the meeting room for the meeting first.”

Zhou Jielun nodded and walked into the meeting room with his assistant.

In the conference room, Yang Junrong, Fang Wenshan, Landy Wen and others were all there.

Everyone looked up and stared at the TV hanging on the wall of the office.

On TV, entertainment news from China Television was being broadcast.

Zhou Jielun's attention was instantly drawn to the fact that the beautiful lady reporting the news was none other than his favorite girl, Hou Pei-chen.

Zhou Jielun felt that Hou Peichen on TV was more beautiful than a few days ago, and her every move was more feminine.

It's like it's "grown up".

After signing with Western Entertainment, Hou Peichen did not resign from China Television immediately. Instead, she changed her position and began reporting entertainment news, preparing for her transformation into an entertainment host.

On TV, I heard Hou Pei-chen reporting the news that after Chinese football entered the World Cup, major singers in the entertainment industry wrote songs about football.

After the news was finished, Hou Pei-chen suddenly said, "Now let me interrupt with a piece of entertainment news that just happened.

According to people familiar with the matter, Zheng Jing and Wu Zongxian reached a deal. Western Records acquired Alpha Records for NT$3 million. Singers such as Zhou Jielun and Landy Wen will become artists of Western Records.

Wu Zongxian said that he sold the company not because of financial problems, but because he was not optimistic about the future of the record industry;

It is reported that the transaction was promoted by Zheng Jing.

The reason was that Zheng Jing was optimistic about Zhou Jie Lun's talent and bought Alpha Records in order to let Zhou Jie Lun write songs for Jing Tian.

NT$3 million just to release an album for Jing Tian. To be honest, I envy Jing Tian. She is truly a rich and beautiful woman. "

Hou Pei-chen has just switched to being an entertainment host, and her reporting of entertainment information still has the flavor of a professional news anchor, which is not relaxed and interesting enough.

But the envy on her face was real.

The audience who saw this news also envied Jing Tian.

But in the Alpha Records conference room, everyone was silent.

Wu Zongxian sold his company, and they had no idea about it. They only found out about it through the entertainment news on TV.

This is really extremely ridiculous.

Zhou Jielun was even more angry.

On the one hand, he felt that Wu Zongxian had betrayed him and sold him out without a word, and on the other hand, he felt bitter.

Zheng Jing not only stole the woman he liked, but also bought his contract just to write a song for Jing Tian.

Listen to this reason, does it make sense?
The atmosphere was very tense, and only Zhong Ruohan was happy.

She said: “Isn’t this a good thing? We have a new boss.

This boss is richer, more generous, and more handsome than Brother Xian, and he also knows a lot about music.

Following Zheng Jing, our future will be bright!"

After hearing what Zhong Ruohan said, everyone thought about it and it seemed to be true.

Only Zhou Jielun muttered: "I don't want to just write songs for others."

Zhong Ruohan patted Zhou Jielun on the shoulder and said, "What are you afraid of? You write songs quickly.

After writing the song for Jingtian, I can write my own song. It won’t delay anything.

Besides, Mr. Zheng is better at writing songs than you, and Jing Tian may not even like your songs. "

Zhou Jielun: “…”

Seeing Zhong Ruohan's smug look, Zhou Jielun felt very tired.

He was betrayed by Wu Zongxian, whom he regarded as his mentor, and his new boss was the big devil Zheng Jing.

Xiao Zhou felt very sad.

On October 10, Zheng Jing reached an agreement with Wu Zongxian and acquired Alpha Records for NT$20 million, officially becoming Xiao Zhou's boss.

The contract was only signed today.

Hou Pei-chen got the exclusive news and broke it first, so she could take the opportunity to become famous.

As for the purchase price publicized to the public, it was exaggerated to NT$3 million to continue packaging Jing Tian's personality.

Wu Zongxian fully cooperated with this.

What he fears most now is that people will say that he has financial problems, and he likes to pretend to be rich.

Du Wei has already sent people to Wandao to handle the Alpha Records matter.

Zheng Jing didn't take it to heart.

On October 10, after finishing the promotion in Southeast Asia, Zheng Jing flew to Tokyo.

In Tokyo, Zheng Jing met up with Chen Guofu, Liu Ruoying and others.

The 14th Tokyo International Film Festival will open on October 10th.

Double Vision has been shortlisted for the main competition unit of this film festival and will premiere on the opening day as the opening film.
